I actually really enjoyed the game, i used to play Pictionary with my friends which is similar but with people rather than an AI and here bias is seen. bias towards what the AI is built to see and what it is designed to recognize. Creating an algorithm that is unbiased is very hard there will always be unbiased implications to any algorithm. This game is biased because how an AI translates what i was drawing is based on his understanding of what this looks like even though my understanding of it is different.
The TedTalk was eyeopening, how she started with showing what came up in google when she first started searching black women was shocking, how black women were seen, pornified and looked at as only sexual beings instead of normal humans, and how the search engine would have been completely different if white woman was entered, the internet is a clear racist place and we don’t even notice it. we consider technology to be the best creation and we neglect the bias and the inequity it puts in the world and embeds in the minds of people without them even being aware of what is fed to their minds. her talk shed a light on how search engines misrepresent women and how we don’t see the ethical dilemma in that and we think that search engines are a great tool to use, however there is bias built in them and how money is influencing what we see rather than credibility. We are fed opinions through search engines like the example of beauty, what we get when we search for something is not the true reality, it’s the pictures that are more popular rather than the more realistic or more credible.
